Hi gents,

A couple of days ago I dusted off my old copy of Planescape Torment, and I have been playing it non-stop for hours. I gotta say, I don't know if it is nostalgia or what, but there is something really exciting about some of these old classics.

Is anyone playing oldschool games? I'd like to checkout some of the games that I might not have had the chance to play while growing up.

Wizardry 8 is great. You won't be disappointed. It can be brutally difficult at times, however.

I've got so many new games I haven't been playing older ones. I have played King's Bounty: Crosswords, however. It's got a nice oldschool TBS vibe that comes as no surprise if you've played the original King's Bounty.

I think I've still got games in my garage that are on 5 1/4 disk format. I know there's many on 3 1/2. I'd love to revisit some of the later Might and Magic titles.

Currently playing Eschalon Book I and really enjoy it. Might try Wizardry8 too, looks interesting and somehow I missed it in the past. I liked Might&Magic6 a lot and it looks similiar. Somehow those old games got "it". Can't describe it, they are just more fun than newer games.
